Also, they interview Dr. Mona Amin from PedsDocTalk about the importance of Covid vaccinations for pregnant and lactating people and what she has experienced as a pediatrician during the pandemic. Finally, Laura and Shanna share several BFPs. This is part 13 of Laura and Shanna’s “Momming During Coronavirus” bonus series.
